The 7th episode of the 86th edition of the TV series "Journey to the West", "Counting the Eight Precepts of the Pig", tells the story of Sun Wukong's recovery of the Eight Precepts of the Pig, corresponding to the original recapitulation of the eighteenth "Guanyinyuan Tang Monk Escapes from difficulties, Gao LaoZhuang Walker Descends demons" and the nineteenth "Yunzhan Cave Wukong Collects the Eight Precepts floating Tu Shan Xuanzang Heart Sutra". This story has always been the most humorous and legendary story, and it is loved by people.
However, if you read the original book carefully, you will find that the eight precepts of the pig and the ability of Sun Wukong are not as big as imagined. How was the original written? The original account of the fight between the two men is in the form of poetry:
The two of them gambled in the middle of the night. Good kill --
The walker's golden eyes are like lightning,
The demon rings its eyes like silver flowers.
This one mouth sprays colored fog,
That one exhaled red light.
Breathing out red light in the dim light,
Mouth spray color fog luminous.
Gold hoop stick, nine-toothed palladium,
Two heroes are boastful.
One is the Great Saint in the mortal world,
One is the marshal descending to the end of the world.
The monster who became a monster because of his loss of authority,
This one escaped suffering to worship the monks.
Palladium goes like a dragon extending its claws,
Sticks greet the phoenix like a phoenix wearing flowers.
The Word that you break your family is like killing a father,
You should take this word when you rape a young girl!
Gossip, chaos,
Often comes the rod frame palladium.
Look at the battle until dawn,
The goblin's two arms felt sour.
——The Nineteenth "Yunzhan Cave Wukong Harvests the Eight Precepts of futu mountain Xuanzang's Heart Sutra"
The result? The result: "The two of them fought from the second hour until the east turned white." The monster could not meet the enemy, fled in defeat, still turned into a fierce wind, went back to the cave, closed the door, and did not come out again. ”
From the second time to the east white, there are countless rounds, which shows that the gap between the Eight Precepts of the Pig and Sun Wukong is not large. So, where did you learn the eight precepts of the pig? What did the past of the Eight Precepts of the Pig look like? Where did his weapon, the Nine-Tooth Nail Rake, come from?
You must know that Pig Eight Commandments was a canopy marshal, and later he was demoted for flirting with Chang'e. But what did pig eight commandments go through before becoming a canopy marshal?
In fact, the original work has records, all of which are stated through the mouth of the Eight Precepts of the Pig.
Before the Fight with Sun Wukong, there was a self-statement, the full text of which is as follows:
Born with a clumsy heart,
Idleness loves laziness.
Have not cultivated sex and cultivated truth,
Chaos obsessed with the sun and the moon.
Suddenly, I met a true immortal in my leisure,
Just sit down and say.
Persuade me to return to my heart,
Wounded creatures create boundless iniquity.
When the great limit of life is over,
Eight difficulties and three ways to repent.
Listen to the words and turn to practice,
Listen to the heart and ask for the magic trick.
Having the opportunity to worship as a teacher,
Indicate the heavens and the earth.
Pass on the Nine Turns of the Great Dan,
Work day and night.
Up to the top door mud pill palace,
Descend to the foot plate fountain cave.
Circulating kidney water into the Huachi,
Dantian is warm and warm.
Baby girl with yin and yang,
Lead and mercury are divided into days and months.
From the dragon Kanhu with a mixture,
The spirit turtle sucked up the blood of the golden crow.
The three flowers gathered to the top to return to the roots,
The five qi are thorough and thorough.
The circle of merit is full but soars,
Heavenly Immortals greeted each other.
Lang Ran's feet under the clouds,
Light body and healthy towards the Golden Que.
The Jade Emperor set up a banquet for the immortals,
Each grade is lined up.
Marshal Guan Tianhe,
The Governor's sailors called the Constitution Festival.
Only because the Queen Mother will peach,
Open a banquet Yaochi to invite guests.
Then drunken and drowsy,
Throwing around and throwing around.
Kushio crashed into the Guanghan Palace,
The Merry Fairy came to meet.
Seeing his countenance captivates the soul of a man,
In the old days, it was difficult for all hearts to perish.
There is no loss of dignity or inferiority,
Pull Chang'e to accompany her.
Again and again do not obey,
Hiding in hiding was displeased.
The color gall is like thunder in the sky,
Almost shook the sky.
Picket Lingguan Playing the Jade Emperor,
That day I was fateful.
The siege of Guanghan is not ventilated,
It is difficult to get out of the way.
but the gods took hold of me,
The wine is not timid in the heart.
Escorted to Lingxiao to see the Jade Emperor,
According to the law, it should be executed.
Thanks to Taibai Lee Venus,
Out of the class bowed down and said in person.
Change the sentence and severely blame two thousand hammers,
The fleshy skin will be broken.
I was reborn by mistake for my sins,
The common name is called pig mane.
Until meeting Sun Wukong, the past of the Eight Precepts of the Pig can be roughly divided into seven stages and nodes:
1. Mortal stage
"Born with a clumsy heart, greedy and lazy. Without cultivating nature and cultivating truth, chaos and confusion are obsessed with the sun and the moon. At this stage, pig eight precepts said that since childhood, he was "greedy and lazy", and his life was just "boiling the sun and the moon", and he was a lazy idler.
Second, meet the true immortals
Suddenly, when he met a true immortal in his spare time, he sat down and said han wen. Persuade me to return to my heart and not to fall into the world, and to inflict wounds and create boundless sins. At the end of the day, the eight difficulties and three ways will not be repentant. Listen to the words and turn to practice, and listen to the words and ask for the magic tips. There is a reason to worship as a teacher, and to instruct the heavens to close and the earth to pass. "By chance, I met the True Immortal (whose name is the True Immortal, we don't know), and this True Immortal persuaded the Eight Precepts of the Pig not to lose himself, and the Eight Precepts of the Pig immediately worshiped the True Immortal as a teacher.
3. Stage of learning and art
"I have to pass on the nine turns of the Great Dan, and the work will be absent day and night." Up to the top gate mud pill palace, down to the foot plate spring cave. The kidney water flows into the Huachi Pool, and the Dantian is warm and warm. Baby girls with yin and yang, lead and mercury are divided into sun and moon. Away from the dragon Kanhu with reconciliation, the spirit turtle sucked up the blood of the golden crow. The three flowers gathered at the top of the root, and the five qi were thorough and thorough. The Eight Precepts of the Pig learned the "Nine Turns of the Great Dan" with the True Immortals, and finally cultivated the right results.
4. Invited to the Celestial Court as an official
"The circle of merit is full but soaring, and the Heavenly Immortals are coming to greet them." Lang Ran was born under the clouds, and his body was light and healthy towards the Golden Que. The Jade Emperor set up a banquet group of immortals, and each grade was lined up. The marshal of the imperial seal manages the Tianhe River, and the governor sailors call it the Constitution Festival. "The Eight Precepts of the Pig graduated and became a teacher, perhaps coinciding with the initial period of the Jade Emperor's Tianting cause, and the Eight Precepts of the Pig were awarded a fairly high official position, and the chief steward of the Tianhe Water Soldiers was the Marshal of the Canopy. His nine-tooth nail rake was also given during this period, and it is mentioned in the eight precepts of the pig and Sun Wukong to describe the origin of the nine-tooth nail rake: "The marshal of the marshal is sealed on the canopy, and the palladium is given as the royal festival." Raise the flames and shine, and fall down the fierce wind and snow. The Gods of Heaven will be shocked, and Yan Luo will be timid."
Fifth, flirting with Chang'e was degraded
"Only because the Queen Mother will peach and open a feast yaochi to invite guests." At that time, he was drunk and drowsy, and he was thrown from side to side. Yu Xiong crashed into the Guanghan Palace, and the wind fairy came to meet him. Seeing his appearance and holding people's souls, it was difficult for all the hearts of the old days to be destroyed. There was no loss of dignity and inferiority, and Chang'e was pulled to accompany her. Repeatedly disobeying, hiding in Tibet is displeased. The color gall was like thunder in the sky, and it almost shook the heavens. The Queen Mother invited the immortals to hold a peach feast, and the Eight Precepts of the Pig drunkenly crashed into the Guanghan Palace, "pulling Chang'e to accompany her to rest", and as a result, Chang'e "repeatedly did not obey", which made the Eight Precepts of the Pig shout angrily, so that "almost shook the Heavenly Pass Que".
Sixth, the reduction of guilt is degraded
"Picket lingguan played the Jade Emperor, that day I should have a bad fate." The siege of Guanghan is not ventilated, and it is difficult to get out of the way without a door. But I was held by the gods, and the wine was not timid in my heart. Escorted to Lingxiao to see the Jade Emperor, according to the law to ask whether it should be executed. Thanks to taibai li venus, he went out to say it himself. The sentence was changed to a heavy responsibility of 2,000 hammers, and the flesh and skin would be broken. "The procurator of the Heavenly Court, the picketing officer, reported the Eight Precepts of the Pig, and according to the laws of the Heavenly Court, he should have been executed, but Taibai Venus interceded with the Jade Emperor, so the Eight Precepts of the Pig were not dead, and the living sin could not be escaped."
Seventh, wrongly cast a pig fetus, Fuling Mountain as a demon
"The release was degraded out of the Heavenly Pass, and the Fuling Mountain was under the map of the family business." I was reborn by mistake because of my guilt, and my common name is called a pig's mane. "Degrading the Heavenly Court, but mistakenly casting a pig fetus, a more detailed account of the pig fetus is the dialogue between the Eight Precepts of the Pig and Guanyin when Guanyin searched for the scriptures:
"I am not a wild pig, nor am I an old man, I am originally the marshal of the canopy in the Tianhe River." Just because he teased Chang'e with wine, the Jade Emperor beat me with two thousand hammers and degraded me to dust. A spiritual true nature actually came to take the reincarnation, and without expecting the wrong path, cast in a sow fetus, and became like this. It was I who bit and killed the sows, but the dead herds occupied the mountain field here, and ate people to survive. ”
However, pig eight precepts after the demon, before marrying Miss Gao, had lived a year of married life. In the Fuling Mountain Yunzhan Cave, "There was originally an egg second sister in the cave, he saw that I had some martial arts, recruited me to be a parent, and called me an upside-down door." Within a year, he died, and he gave me all the possessions of a hole. In this day and age, there is no one to support the body, but to live according to ben and other cannibals. (The above quotations are all from the eighth "My Buddha's Sutra Transmission of Bliss Guanyin Fengzhi Shangchang'an")
The bodhisattva learned the origin of the Eight Precepts of the Pig and felt that he could use it, so he gave the Eight Precepts of the Pig "Moding ordination" and "referred to as a surname", so the former Marshal of the Canopy had a surname, Pig, and gave him the name of the Dharma- Wu Neng, so the Eight Precepts of the Pig had the name of "Pig Wu Neng". Later, the Tang monks accepted pig enlightenment as an apprentice, and gave the alias "Eight Precepts", and the three words "Eight Precepts of Pigs" surpassed the popularity of "Pig Enlightenment".
However, although Pig Wuneng, under the enlightenment of Guanyin Bodhisattva, "led the order to the truth, held the fast, cut off the five meats and three disgusts, and waited for the person who took the scriptures", he was impatient and went to find the third woman in his life, Gao Cuilan. So there was a scene of "Counting the Eight Precepts of the Pig".
Having said all this, the ability of the Eight Precepts of the Pig is only half said. Theoretical study, the eight precepts of the pig are obtained from the unknown "true immortal", but the theory still needs to be tested in practice, so how are the skills of the eight precepts of the pig practiced? Or through the passage from his statement of the nine-tooth nail rake:
Carried together for several years,
Accompany me for a few years without a day.
Eclipse three meals are not lost,
Sleep through the night without skimming.
I also went to peach,
He also took him to the Emperor Que.
All because of the wine but the murder,
Just sprinkle for the sake of the strong.
Heaven has brought me down to mortal dust,
In the next life, I will do my sins.
The stone cave heart evil once ate people,
Gao Zhuang is happy to marry and tie.
This palladium under the sea overturned the dragon's nest,
Go up the hill and crush the Tiger Wolf's Den.
All kinds of blades and closed questions,
Only I am the most palladium.
How difficult it is to win against each other,
It goes without saying that gambling and fighting for merit.
Pig Eight Precepts got the Nine-Tooth Nail Rake, if you get the most precious treasure, not only carry it with you, but also really rely on the nail rake to "go down to the sea to overturn the dragon's nest, go up the mountain to crush the tiger and wolf's den", internal force cultivation plus the outer palm nail rake, so that the Pig Eight Precepts will not fall behind in self-confidence at least in the battle with Sun Wukong.
